TOEFL is one of my top subjects! I have taught many students who want to ace the Test. As an immigrant myself I know how to develop the skills by the test date. When I first took the test I received acceptance at 5-6 colleges.

I have always been a dedicated student all my life. I teach a variety of subjects as I am proficient in many of them. I only teach subjects or test preps that I know I can help the student in. I know I can help any student do well in class if she or he follows my guide-line. My GPA has always been between 3.7 and 4.0 all through my academic journey.
I give notes, guide-lines and encouragement. I am very patient.

My comments on tutoring TOEFL : While living in Japan, I taught classes in TOEFL test preparation with great success. I taught, with good results, students how to go through the process of elimination in order to come to the correct answer. On the listening part, I taught with equal success.

I have taught all subjects mentioned for a period of over 25 years, both in the United States and Japan. I received a teacher award in Japan for excellence in teaching. My own previous students endorse me as a good, or even great, teacher. As for subjects, I prepared teachers in international schools to teach AP Latin. I taught TOEFL at more than one level to college students in Japan who were seeking to study in the United States as well.
I have a very relaxed style of teaching. Not so relaxed that there is not order in the classroom, but a style designed to put students at ease and to put them into a mood for learning. I encourage participation, active participation in class, and I encourage questions. I seek to explain so that students understand perfectly, and I will not give up until I am convinced that all have a grasp of the subject that I am teaching.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is eclectic, drawing from a variety of instructional methods according to the immediate needs of my student. I look for the strengths, not only academic, but also social and personal, in every student. I also assess a student’s needs both formally and informally to determine areas of need and whether we are making progress in those areas. I strive to engage learners in the material and hope to make them independent learners, able to further develop their skills even when I am not with them.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style can best be described as entertaining, insightful, dedicated, flexible and individually-oriented. I feel that for any individual who chooses to learn something new, the biggest key to their success is motivation and their personal interest in what they are looking to learn. I also recognize that many students (especially young learners) are guided to study various lessons/fields by parents/educators and they need to find what they are being guided to study interesting in some way. I work to create a welcoming rapport with students and then, using my knowledge of the study being taught along with paying close attention to the desires and needs of a student, create a lesson that student finds interesting and therefore become drawn to. I like to try to make all my lessons exciting and to always end with the student feeling good about whatever they may have learned. As ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

For over twenty years I have taught at the college level, with extensive expertise in teaching the liberal arts to engineering majors. Much of my work is directed towards teaching research, writing, editing, and analytical skills. I have expertise in writing, editing, research, and most importantly, synthesizing information. While in college, I tutored for three years at a home for 'wayward' boys. My own daughter had some learning disabilities (auditory dyslexia) and though I would not take full credit for this, she is now a successfull first year college student (with a 3.75 average her first semester) and an avid reader. I feel strongest about my skills in teaching students who 'hate' school; writing; alternative ways of looking at math problems.
I assume even the 'worst' student wishes to learn, has the means to do so, and will direct me in how to help him or her di ... read more
